The Opportunity

We're looking for a Site Supervisor to help us live our mission to prepare people with recent criminal convictions for securing employment each year.

This role is perfect for you if you enjoy a non-traditional workspace, like being on your feet, and love being outdoors.

Who We Are

The Center for Employment Opportunities (CEO) provides employment services to people recently released from incarceration. Across the United States, 8,000-9,000 people participate in CEO each year, transitioning to employment that supports themselves, their families, and their communities.

What began as a demonstration project of the Vera Institute of Justice in the 1970s to address employment barriers facing the formerly incarcerated following release in New York City has grown into the leading reentry employment organization in the country, where over 30,000 formerly incarcerated individuals have secured full-time employment since 1996.
